The project for a large-yacht repair center in the capital's port, driven by the Rodritol group, enters its second stage. After ten years of procedures and setbacks, brothers Juan Carlos and Octavio Rodríguez Toledo have begun constructing three new buildings to house workshops, offices, and meeting rooms.

The first phase, focused on the repair workshop, began operations in late 2024, having serviced 123 boats out of the water and six afloat to date. Despite positive figures, the investment now exceeds ten million euros, a considerably higher sum than initially projected.

The owners express optimism with the start of this new phase, which they expect to complete in 2027. They are confident that once construction is finished, they will be able to capture 100% of the large-yacht market. They acknowledge the project has demanded significant personal and professional effort.

The path has not been without difficulties, from issues with land development to initial neighborhood opposition. However, the Rodríguez Toledo brothers defend the project's legality and legitimacy, adhering to all conditions set by the Port Authority of Las Palmas.

This new center, complementing the Muelle Deportivo dry dock specialized in smaller vessels, features high-capacity cranes and a floating dock for afloat services. It has enabled vessels operating in the islands to avoid traveling to the mainland for repairs, also attracting international clients.

The company emphasizes the high demands of luxury yacht repair and painting, implementing top quality standards and environmental measures. Clients such as the Navy, the Civil Guard, and Maritime Rescue trust their vessels to Rodritol, which generates over 20 direct jobs.
